The pole screw holes are not threaded but are easily threaded by using 5-40 fillister poles screws during assembly. Positive contact between pole screws and baseplates like in the original PAF pickups.

good base plates

These plates work fine for vintage PAF style humbuckers. The prices are good and even better if ordered in quantity. The delivery took a little while but that was the customs here in Austria sitting on them for a few weeks. The guys and girls at Philadelphia Luthier always reply sensibly and promptly to any email enquiries. Good company to deal with and also good products and prices to boot. A happy customer.
